NGP 161NA 36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What lengths does the NGP 161NA perimeter seal come in, and how do I cover a standard commercial opening?
The 161NA perimeter seal is sold in 36, 48 and 84 inch lengths. For a typical single door opening you run the 84 inch pieces down each jamb and a 36 inch piece across the head; a 48 inch piece covers the head on a pair. Order per opening, not per door, since head and jamb runs are separate pieces.
2) Will the NGP 161NA hold up on an exterior door in a cold climate?
It is rated from -81 F to 275 F, so freeze-thaw cycling and summer sun loading are both inside its range. The EPDM sealing element is moisture resistant with good resistance to ozone, sunlight and aging, and the aluminum carrier is clear anodized for corrosion resistance. That combination is what makes it an exterior-capable seal rather than an interior smoke or light seal.
3) Is the NGP 161NA certified to any weatherstripping standard for a spec job?
It is BHMA certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.22 Performance Tests for Heat and Cold. That is the standard a specifier will be looking for on a door gasketing submittal, and it covers the heat and cold performance testing rather than a fire or smoke rating.
4) Is a perimeter seal like the 161NA the right part for the gap under my door?
No. A perimeter seal mounts on the frame head and jambs to close the gap around the top and sides of the door. The bottom gap needs a door bottom, sweep, or door shoe instead. Buyers commonly order both for one opening: perimeter gasketing around three sides, a sweep or automatic door bottom across the fourth.
5) Do I need to buy fasteners separately for the NGP 161NA perimeter seal?
No. The 161NA ships with #6 x 3/4 inch stainless steel sheet metal screws. The screw holes are slotted, so you can set the seal, snug the screws, and shift the carrier in or out against the door face before final tightening to even out the contact.
6) What is the NGP 161NA actually made of, and why does the material matter for a high-traffic door?
The carrier is 6063-T5 aluminum alloy and the seal is synthetic EPDM rubber in a polypropylene thermoplastic matrix. EPDM is chosen here for abrasion resistance, tensile strength and memory, meaning the bulb recovers its shape after repeated door closings instead of taking a set and leaving a gap. On a school or office entrance cycling hundreds of times a day, that memory is the difference between a seal that still works in year three and one that whistles.
7) How does the NGP 161NA compare to the Cal-Royal PG-601 perimeter gasketing?
Both are aluminum channel perimeter gasketing. The Cal-Royal PG-601 uses a vinyl insert; the NGP 161NA uses EPDM rubber, which is the more common choice where the door sees sun, ozone and wide temperature swings. If you are matching existing Cal-Royal gasketing on a building, the PG-601 keeps the profile consistent; for a new exterior opening spec'd to A156.22 heat and cold, the 161NA is the one that carries that certification on record.
8) Should I use a vinyl-insert perimeter gasket or an EPDM one on an exterior door in a cold climate?
For exposed exterior openings with wide seasonal swings, the NGP 161NA is the one to specify: its synthetic EPDM seal is rated from -81 F to 275 F, is flame resistant and moisture resistant, and has good resistance to ozone, sunlight and aging, with BHMA certification to ANSI/BHMA A156.22 heat and cold performance tests. The Cal-Royal PG-601 uses a vinyl insert in its aluminum channel, which is a common choice for interior and sheltered openings. Both are aluminum channel perimeter gasketing and install the same way around the frame.
9) Will a door shoe work instead of the NGP 161NA perimeter seal?
No. The NGP 161NA seals the perimeter of the opening - the head and both jambs - against the face or stop of the door, and it ships with #6 x 3/4 inch stainless steel sheet metal screws and slotted holes for alignment. A door shoe, such as the Cal-Royal products catalogued in the Door Shoes Series, mounts to the bottom edge of the door itself to close the gap at the threshold. The two address different parts of the same opening, so a fully weatherstripped exterior door typically needs both rather than one in place of the other.
10) Will the NGP 161NA match the other aluminum door hardware on my building?
The finish is satin aluminum clear anodized with a black EPDM seal, which is the standard look on aluminum storefront and hollow metal frames finished in clear anodize. If your building is standardized on dark bronze or painted frames, the black rubber reads fine but the aluminum carrier will show as silver.
11) Can I use the NGP 161NA in a warehouse or industrial building, or is it only for office doors?
It is a commercial-grade seal and NGP lists it for industrial and warehouse facilities alongside offices, schools, healthcare, retail, multi-tenant residential and government buildings. The flame-resistant, moisture-resistant construction and the wide temperature rating are what let it work on an unconditioned dock or loading door as well as a conditioned lobby entrance.
12) I need perimeter seal for a standard 3-0 x 7-0 door - do I order by piece or by set?
The NGP 161NA is supplied as individual lengths in 36 inch, 48 inch and 84 inch sizes, so a single 3-0 x 7-0 opening takes one 36 inch piece for the head and two 84 inch pieces for the jambs. Cal-Royal's PG-601 is the comparable aluminum channel perimeter gasketing if you are matching an existing frame that already carries that product. Ordering by individual length lets you cut the head piece to the frame rebate rather than trimming a pre-packaged set.
